Teacher Created ResourcesBoxwood Better Than Paper Bulletin Board Roll (TCR77448)

Used for the bulletin board in my classroom. It was thick, durable, and easy to work with. It looks beautiful and should last long.

When I came across Better Than Paper a few years ago, I knew I would never purchase another brand of bulletin paper ever again. I have used this paper on our classroom bulletins for 5 years now, and they still look brand new. Always looking for a refresh in what is displayed, the paper has seen thousands of staples, and each time I remove them, I cannot make out where they once were.Wanting to shake up our back classroom wall and make it more of a statement wall, I decided to use Better Than Paper once again. I knew it would bring so much dimension to our back wall while still keeping things to code (the official website states that Better Than Paper has been tested and is not considered a flammable solid material).It took 5 rolls of the 12’ x 4’ rolls, but the result is exactly what I had envisioned. I had to cut some odd shapes to fix some spots, and the paper blended in so well. You have to look closely to tell where the paper lines up with a new edge, but this specific design allows for easier blending.The paper is more of a vinyl material, so it is thicker and slightly glossy. You can see lights reflect off of it when viewing at certain angles.I am quite optimistic that this will be a great display for years to come!

Better than paper bulletin board paper is my all time favorite. It’s so durable and looks great!

Makes my bulletin board look great and doesn’t fade!

I have long been a fan of Better Than Paper bulletin board backgrounds, but this living wall pattern is next level! I wanted to have a living wall kind of feel to my classroom this year without breaking my bank. When I saw this product, I was so excited! I used a staple gun to attach it to my classroom’s self-healing wall and it transformed our space. It is easy to cut and hand, hearty enough to last the whole year and probably next as well. It’s a great consistency and makes wiping off marks easy. If you haven’t used Better Than Paper before, it’s very durable and much thicker than traditional board paper. Highly recommend! One wall of my classroom took 2.5 rolls (minus the space taken up by the whiteboard). I will never go back to regular bulletin board paper!

This paper is very durable and it won't make unnecessary creases. I would like guide lines on the back for cutting straight lines.

So freaking awesome! I kept a couple of different patterns in my shopping cart for weeks, undecided. Then a coworker put hers up and I was sold.I covered one entire wall with the boxwood pattern hoping to make it feel a little less like a cave since I have no windows. It looks great. (I'll try and remember to add a pic when I get back to the classroom.)The rolls we're a little awkward to work with at first. It would have helped to have two people but I did it just fine alone. I found it easiest to work top to bottom, left to right but some of that will depend on the pattern you choose. I didn't think the boxwood pattern would have a direction but it clearly does (there's a clear growth pattern when you see it in person).I bought three rolls and used all but a few scraps.Thinking about buying more when I figure out how to attach it to the inside of a glass surface without ruining the look.So worth the expense!

One roll covered 1.5 parts of the wall that I needed. Super cute.

I absolutely love the bulletin board covers by Better than Paper. They are high quality and aesthetically pleasing. Best of all, I can leave them up all year long and not have to worry about fading. Also great to roll them back up and save them from one year to the next.

Large enough to fit the big bulletin board and lots of extra left.

I love this stuff and have it in multiple colors/ patterns. Hate hanging it on anything other than corkboard (which, ironically, is exactly why I buy it - to cover nasty non-corkboard surfaces). Tried hot glue, gorilla mounting tape, etc. and the only thing that works is wide head finishing nails. Oh well. Still beautiful stuff.
